Yes, this was taken from Reddit but I thought the comments here would be funny.
In a weird final twist on 'How I Met Your Mother' allow me to present:

One of my best chums, a Welsh girl here in i the warehouse in London, has a penpal who's in prison on the West Coast of the States somewhere - some gang-related crime thing (She knows him from when he was a wee nipper, a decade ago when she lived there).
Poor fucker's in his early 20s and is basically doomed - a couple of stupid little demi-criminal convictions topped up by a fight a couple of years back, defending one of his chums. Poor fucker's probably going to be in for life with that evil-ass Three Strikes system they have over there.
The pencil sketches he sends her are Fucking Amazing. So sad.
We have a fuck-off huge Mexicali meal in his honour every month or so, and send him photos... which I'm not sure doesn't amount to some sort of torture, but whatever.

Random points and thoughts:
0. Social media content manager for inmates http://www.businessinsider.com/p…
1. The state helps create an internal threat embodied by criminals, for example by outlawing drugs.
2. Incarcerating the perpetrator can be a good idea, but many times it only reacts to the symptoms and is a way for the state to maintain said threat by further fucking the community, e.g. by recidivism.
4. If the state would invest the money it does in law enforcement and incarceration in the people who need it while they are still in the streets, less crime would be committed.
